Pl-Bh, an anthocyanin regulatory gene of maize that leads to variegated pigmentation.

Genetics - 1 Oct 1993

Cocciolone S M, Cone K C

Abstract excerpt

Anthocyanins are purple pigments that can be produced in virtually all parts of the maize plant. The spatial distribution of anthocyanin synthesis is dictated by the organ-specific expression of a few regulatory genes that control the transcription of the structural genes. The regulatory genes are grouped into families based on functional identity and DNA sequence similarity. The C1/Pl gene family consists of C1,...
